Howdens, the trade kitchen supplier, has announced TradeFest 2025, launching exclusive deals and giving tradespeople nationwide the chance to win a prize worth over £45,000.
The prize includes a new van, and £8,000 worth of tools, plus road tax and insurance.
Launching on September 8, customers will be automatically entered, with one entry for each kitchen containing 4 or more cabinets and three further entries for each Lamona appliance added in one transaction.
Howdens has also partnered with Micah Purnell, an award-winning graphic design artist, to create a one-off TradeFest logo for a limited run of hoodies, directing customers to their social media channels for a chance to win one.
Austin Cooke, managing director for trade at Howdens, said: “We are going big with the launch of TradeFest 2025 – not only does it celebrate and back the trade, we are offering our biggest kitchen deals of the year. It’s the best time to buy a kitchen, using our free home surveys and expert design services for homeowners, our kitchens are available from local stock and ready for the trade to fit.”
TradeFest will be supported by a new radio campaign, featuring across talkSPORT, Absolute, Kiss, FIX Radio, and the FIX Radio Street Team, who will visit 20 depots across the nation.
